What would happen if the Earth stopped spinning for one minute?

If only the atmosphere keeps going, Earth’s surface is blasted with winds moving at hundreds of miles per hour. Most people die.

Does the whole planet (from core to atmosphere) stop spinning?

The answer depends entirely on how you interpret the question, which is why you see so many completely different responses.

Why cant I feel anything in my sleep? I cannot even feel myself moving, breathing, and swallowing saliva! I cannot even hear anything, not even my alarm! Some people that I've been with says that I'm moving a lot in my sleep, how can I stop it?

If Earth’s rotation is stopped by a collision, everyone dies. The planet is destroyed.

Does the rocky planet alone stop spinning?

If the whole Earth stops by magic, with the angular momentum just vanishing and then reappearing, then the result is very minor. Every clock on Earth would need to be recalibrated against our satellites (unless they magically got paused as well). Siderial, solar, and atomic time would all be out of sync. Other than that, everybody would want to know: What the heck just happened? How did Earth magically stop and start again? But everybody is just fine.

Are fanservice-y characters (i.e. Lara Croft, Tifa Lockhart) immediately bad?

“What would happen if the Earth stopped spinning for one minute?”

Does the solid Earth + the oceans stop spinning?

If Earth’s rotation is stopped and all the angular momentum is released as heat, everyone dies.

There is any scientific evidence that we live in a sphere. Why do others say that we lives in a flat Earth but there is no evidence that they have proven the existence of a flat earth?

If the oceans keep going, Earth’s surface is scoured clean by tsunamis moving at hundreds of miles per hour. Nearly everyone dies.

If it stops by magic, does all the energy from Earth’s angular momentum also disappear by magic, or is it released as heat?

Bottom line: Depending on the underlying intent of the question, the answer could be anything from the destruction of the planet and every living thing, to a minor inconvenience that requires resetting our clocks.

What are some effective ways to cope with loss and grief?

Does it stop due to a massive collision, or does it stop by magic?
